Using an exception policy to exclude monitored applications

You can enable and maintain the list of excluded monitored applications in the Exploit Guard exception policy using the Web UI or the CLI.

Note

Excluding monitored applications from Exploit Guard processing is not recommended because it restricts the monitored applications that Exploit Guard protects.

Applications that are monitored for exploits are

Adobe Reader, Adobe Flash, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Google Chrome, Java, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and Microsoft PowerPoint, and Microsoft Office 2010 files
